Volume 1, Chapter 1894, The Yun Family’s Background!
"If it's not too much trouble, thank you very much, Uncle Ye."
Yun Lingxiao thanked her. The Ziyang Milin needed by the Qingyang Divine Willow was indeed one of the purposes of her trip.
"It's okay. Leave it to me."
Ye Wenyao agreed.
"Come, have some tea."
After saying that, he picked up the teacup and took a sip. In fact, he could guess Yun Lingxiao's real purpose.
"Um...Uncle Ye."
Yun Lingxiao spoke again.
But at this moment, a woman in her twenties came walking quickly. She had standard willow-leaf eyebrows, a high nose bridge, a graceful figure, and her brows were full of charm and agility.
She is Ye Wenyao's daughter, Ye Tinglan, and also the chief auctioneer of this auction!
"Father, the dinner party will start soon. Uncle Kong asked about you. I..."
Ye Tinglan came closer as he spoke, his eyes fell on Yun Lingxiao and he quickly recognized him.
"Ling Xiao?"
"Listen to Sister Lan."
Yun Lingxiao stood up and greeted him.
"When did you arrive? We haven't seen each other for a long time, right?"
Ye Tinglan looked at Yun Lingxiao with considerable enthusiasm.
"Yes, I arrived last night."
Yun Lingxiao responded.
"You seem to have changed a lot. It should be because I've made you the head of the family. Should I call you the head of the Yun family now?"
Ye Tinglan pulled Yun Lingxiao to sit down.
"I heard Sister Lan was joking. I heard that you are the chief auctioneer of this auction. Congratulations."
Yun Lingxiao said that, in fact, she and Ye Tinglan were not very familiar with each other and they did not interact much before.
Furthermore, her personality and upbringing destined her to have few friends and no close friends.
"Actually, I had this idea last year, but my father didn't support me..."
Ye Tinglan continued to speak, she was also a very opinionated person, gentle on the surface, but strong in her bones.
"Tinglan, you can treat everyone else equally at tomorrow's auction, but you have to be considerate of your sister Lingxiao."
Ye Wenyao thought about it and gave instructions.
"Do I need you to remind me of this? I'm sure I will."
Ye Tinglan replied.
"No, Uncle Ye, I'm not here to bother you with these things."
Yun Lingxiao shook his head.
"Why, is there something wrong at home?"
Ye Tinglan asked.
"Ling Xiao, what's wrong with you today? This is not like your character. How come you are so indecisive now that you are the head of the family?"
Seeing Yun Lingxiao hesitating, Ye Wenyao spoke again.
"Uncle Ye, then I will...just say it straight."
Yun Lingxiao spoke slowly. Normally she would not do this, but the current situation of the Yun family really left her with no choice.
"It's like this. The Yun family is indeed facing some problems right now. I came to Zhongzhou City this time not only to participate in the auction, but also to ask you for something."
"Your father and I have a long history. If you have any problem, just tell me. I will do it immediately if I can. If I can't do it, I will help you find a solution."
Ye Wenyao became much more serious.
"I wonder if it is possible for the Yun family to rejoin the core management of the Zhongzhou City Auction."
Yun Lingxiao finally spoke.
Speaking of which, when her grandfather and father were still alive, the Yun family had a status equal to that of the Tianlong Pavilion, or even stronger.
But later, her grandfather passed away, and the Yun family's status plummeted, so they were no longer qualified to serve as the management of the auction.
This time, she wanted to regain certain authority, which would be of great significance to the Yun family at present!
"This……"
Ye Wenyao was stunned. He looked at Ye Tinglan and a hint of surprise flashed across his face.
"I know that with the current status of the Yun family, we may not be qualified to make such a request."
Yun Lingxiao continued.
"But when my Yun family left, the head of the Kong family originally promised to compensate us, but it was not implemented in the end. You should also know this."
"Of course I know. I fought for you at that time, but..."
Ye Wenyao's expression changed.
"I heard everything, so I am always grateful to you, Uncle Ye."
Yun Lingxiao said seriously.
"Ling Xiao, if you want something else, father and I can find a way, but you also know that father has no say in this matter."
Ye Tinglan said slowly.
"I want to see the head of the Kong family, but I can't. I want to ask Uncle Ye to tell him that I am not here to ask for the so-called compensation from that year, but since the Kong family owes my grandfather and the Yun family, there should be an explanation!"
Yun Lingxiao's tone changed slightly.
"Ling Xiao, since you are the head of the Yun family, you should not be so naive. This is not a problem of the Yun family's status, but..."
Ye Wenyao frowned.
"what?"
Yun Lingxiao asked.
“In fact, there are some things that happened back then that you don’t know at all. Your grandfather had a huge disagreement with the old city lord, and it was completely irreconcilable, but I don’t know the specific details.
Therefore, up to now, you have no chance of getting any explanation from Kong Qingyuan. Besides, you should know him well. He is more resourceful than his father!"
Ye Wenyao continued.
Yun Lingxiao was stunned. This was the first time she had heard of this. If this was the case, then things would indeed be a bit difficult to handle.
However, the reason why she came to find Ye Wenyao was not because she was naive enough to think that she could achieve her goal by relying on affection. After all, it was worthless.
What she valued was the strength and foundation of Tianlong Pavilion, and she also knew about some unknown potential conflicts between Ye Wenyao and Kong Qingyuan.
That's why she chose Ye Wen Yao as her breakthrough point.
Of course, she wouldn't be so naive as to think that she could get things done without showing some sincerity.
"Uncle Ye should know about the Lingyun Crystal of my Yun family, right?"
After a while, Yun Lingxiao spoke again.
"I know."
Ye Wenyao nodded.
That is a kind of spiritual crystal that is unique to the Yun family. The energy inside it is far more powerful than any other spiritual crystal in the depths of the Kunlun Realm. It is said that it can greatly increase the speed of cultivation and can also be used to refine top-level magic weapons and elixirs!
Looking at Yun Lingxiao again, a fist-sized spiritual crystal flashed in his hand, with extremely powerful energy surging inside.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of Ye Wenyao and his daughter suddenly changed.
"This is the Lingyun Crystal of my Yun family!"
Yun Lingxiao said calmly.
"I heard that the spiritual crystals of your Yun family are very difficult to mine and refine. So, now you..."
Ye Wenyao was very puzzled.
He had seen Lingyun Crystal in Yun Lingxiao's father's hands before, but he did not sense the internal energy at that time.
You know, even the Yun family cannot mine it at will. If they want to release the energy in it, they need a unique secret method passed down from generation to generation.
The only one who can do all this is the old man of the Yun family, so the status of the Yun family is unshakable!
Although the existence of Lingyun Crystal has preserved the Yun family's status, it is still inevitably coveted and spied on by others.
"I'll give this to Uncle Ye first. Don't misunderstand me. This is not for the auction, but also to thank you for what happened before."
Yun Lingxiao did not directly respond to Ye Wenyao's question. In fact, these were all left by his grandfather before he died, and there were not many left.
At the moment, she has not yet understood the secret method her grandfather left her, nor does she have the ability to continue mining and releasing the energy of the Lingyun Crystal, but this cannot be made public.
